You are seeing from the perspective of a sysadmin.
He was replying to me, a desktop user. My most important data occupy
little space and can surely be backed up in a 1 GB pen drive. The
music ripped from CDs, the linux ISOs and other kind of recoverable
data do not need backup.
As for my photos, I can back all the collection to a single DVD (and
to a second one, since I keep hearing that DVD-Rs are unreliable), and
since I don't take new photos every week, this solution is fine.
